You can be asked for a lot of personal information
Although each personal injury case is unique, it is customary for a plaintiff to be requested to provide a great deal of personal information. This might include information about their work, such as W-2s and pay stubs, as well as information on their insurance plans, tax records, and medical and other benefits.
If there has been an injury, medical records will almost certainly be required. This is understandable since the defendant has a right to know what injuries are being claimed in the lawsuit. They may, however, request more intimate medical information, such as your whole medical history or notes written by your doctor.
It’s conceivable that your personal information will be exposed
Despite the fact that protections are in place, sensitive data can be hacked in a variety of ways. If papers are taken to a professional photocopy, for example, the California Code of Civil Procedure mandates that the photocopier retain a copy of all material copied for at least six months after the case is closed.
There is always the risk that any electronically stored information will fall into the wrong hands, just as there is always the risk that it will fall into the wrong hands with any other electronically stored information.
